Please watch. it kinda gets to the heart of where we are today !

Interesting but it doesn't tell the whole story and some of his claims are dubious...all these "studies show" - what studies and where can I find them? And young people today are tested and feel they have to compete with each other from the age of 7 (SATS). They are constantly tested and told they need to work hard.

Also (although it is falling) for several years the highest rate of suicide is actually for men over the age of 45 (you can find suicide rates from the office of national statistics).

I work with teenagers and young people, and I can tell you they have a very strong work ethic but with the decline in manufacturing and other traditional industries it is much tougher for them than ever before. Most of them will never be able to afford to buy their own house and there is hardly any social housing any more.

Mobile phones are a plague but its not only young people who are addicted to technology!

It is a different world now, and if we keep bashing young people they won't want to look after us in our old age!
